JavaScript - Spliting A String?

Hi guys im new here i have a project about searching string im am going to use javascript the program should look like this.

Enter first word: abcd
Search in first Word: ab

then pop up ab found
then if i type like sdg
then pop up sdg not found

something like this plss how can i do that

When comparing an empty string "" to another string like "1232", javascript is returning true. Why is that?

I am using javascript to search for the '*' character in a string (ie. 'username*:') but using search('\*') does not work. How do I search for it since the search function takes a regexp argument and * messes that up?

Hi everyone...
I'd written a code to split a string like below:

Input string: a=>aa|b=>b||b|c=>cc

and the output:
a=>aa
b=>b||b
c=>cc

I use .Match() to do that as below:

var matches = "a=>aa|b=>b||b|c=>cc".match(/(?:[^|]|\|\|)+/g)

I want to use tha .Split() to split the above string.
please help me...

Hi I have a given url and want to back up a level.

url = "test/level1/level2/level3/"

I would like to it remove the "level3/" to become url="test/level1/level2/"

Hey guys. I'm trying to display a grid of data basically, but inside a table and with appropriate closing and beginning of td and tr tags. I'm having a very weird problem. Here is my code:

Code:

   tasks = document.getElementById('tasks');
   var i = 0;
   tasks.innerHTML = <tablebgcolor=silver>";
   while (i < 3)
   {
      tasks.innerHTML = tasks.innerHTML + "<tr><td>";
      tasks.innerHTML = tasks.innerHTML + text[i][0];
      tasks.innerHTML = tasks.innerHTML + "</td><td>";
      tasks.innerHTML = tasks.innerHTML + text[i][1];
      tasks.innerHTML = tasks.innerHTML + "</td><td>";
      tasks.innerHTML = tasks.innerHTML + text[i][2];
      tasks.innerHTML = tasks.innerHTML + "</td></tr>";
      i++;
   }
   tasks.innerHTML = tasks.innerHTML + "</table>";

The html just doesn't work when it's in a string. I have to put each "<tr><td>", "</td><td>", </td></tr>", <table bgcolor=silver>", etc. into it's own variable and do it that way. That doesn't seem like it should be happening and I don't think it would be good to do it that way in the long run. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Hi,

I have a string stored in a variable var = "4.25 houses".

I would like to only extract the currency value, ie "4.25" from this. Is this possible? Also I would like to divide and multiply the new variable I get... does this number need to be converted or something?

Thanks in advance!

Help, I can't figure out why this doesn't work.

Thanks..

I have an array:
Code:

var array_123=["test1","test2","test3"];

I have a string:
Code:

var array_string = "array_" + "123";

I would like to use the value of array_string (array_123) as an array to parse out the values of it. But this isn't working:
Code:

for (var x in array_string)
  {
  var test_ary = array_string[x];
  }

Any help?

Hi,

I'm working on refining my search function. At the moment it works fine like this:
Code:

	function searchLocations() 
{
    var found = false;
    var input = document.getElementById('autocomplete').value;
    for (var j = 0; j < gmarkers.length; j++) 
    {
        if (gmarkers[j].myname.toLowerCase() == input.toLowerCase()) 
        {
            found = true;
            gmarkers[j].show();
            myclick(j);
        }
    }
    if ( ! found ) alert("No matches found. Please check your spelling or refine your search.");
}

but you have to get the input exactly the same as it is in the array for it to work (as it should, being that that's the way it's written). I wanted to split it so that for example Black Cat Hotel would pop if the user entered Black OR Cat OR Hotel (or any combination of the above).

So I thought that this might work:

Code:

	function searchLocations() 
{
    var found = false;
    var input = document.getElementById('autocomplete').value;
    for (var j = 0; j < gmarkers.length; j++) 
    {
	var s = gmarkers[j].myname.toLowerCase().split(" ");
        if ( s == input.toLowerCase()) 
        {
            found = true;
            gmarkers[j].show();
            myclick(j);
        }
    }
    if ( ! found ) alert("No matches found. Please check your spelling or refine your search.");
}

but obviously not. Is there some better way to do this?

How to handle String in Javascript

Hello,

I need your help.

Hello,

I need your help.

Let's say for example if I have the following file number: 2011-1234567 and if the value of the variable is already the same (ie. var fileNo = 2011-1234567) how can I go about automatically adding a number at the end?

ex.1.)
var fileNo = "2011-1234567"
if (fileNo already exists) { fileNo = 2011-1234567-2 }

ex.2.)
var fileNo = "2011-1234567-2"
if (fileNo already exists) { fileNo = 2011-1234567-3 }

ect.

Much thanks and appreciation for all your help.
